Rep. Matt Gaetz’s GOP colleagues are looking to boot him as the firebrand Florida lawmaker leads a push to oust House Speaker Kevin McCarthy.
Gaetz, who is rumored to be eyeing a run for Florida governor, brushed aside the threat, posting a “Game of Thrones” meme.
Gaetz has professed his innocence on the ethics probe, which is reportedly nearing its conclusion.
The investigation is said to center around allegations that include sexual misconduct, illicit drug use and potential public corruption.
Some House GOP members are seeking to expel Rep. Matt Gaetz over his attempt to oust Speaker Kevin McCarthy.
McCarthy, in turn, has expressed confidence that he will prevail if a motion to oust him is presented.
Catalyzing Gaetz’s recent push to give McCarthy the boot is the recent spending patch McCarthy brought to the House floor Saturday to stave off a government shutdown. »
